Prep the Clothespin: Apply several drops of the chosen oil onto the wooden clothespin, ensuring it’s well-soaked.
Place in Shower: Attach the clothespin to the showerhead or another part of the shower, but avoid direct contact with the water stream.
As you shower, you’ll notice a delightful aroma permeating the air. It’s an economical yet effective way to uplift your shower experience.

Why Wooden Clothespins?

Wooden clothespins are ideal because they absorb and retain the essential oil, acting much like a natural diffuser. Plastic simply won’t have the same effect. If your showerhead doesn’t accommodate the clothespin, consider attaching it to the shower curtain, shower screen, soap dish, or even a suction hook.

The Science Behind the Scent

When essential oil infuses the wooden clothespin, it’s essentially a DIY diffuser. During a warm shower, the steam interacts with the oil-saturated clothespin, releasing the essential oil’s aroma into the air. Even when not showering, the aroma remains but is more subtle. The magic really happens once the warm steam releases the vibrant scents of the essential oil.

Choosing the Right Essential Oils

Essential oils aren’t just chosen for their aroma; they come packed with individual benefits. Whether you’re in the mood for the calming effect of lavender, the cleansing properties of lemon, or the refreshing feel of eucalyptus, there’s an essential oil for every mood. Feel free to explore rosemary, pine, mint, tangerine, and more. Each shower can be a new aromatic adventure, and you’ll also reap the therapeutic benefits of each oil.

You can also opt for fragrant oils if you’re looking for a similar aromatic experience.
